I think I'm also going to jump in next year anyway and I think I'll prioritize my challenge choices by picking only those which include the sort of books I think it's really important to read - banned books, diverse books, and books I already own for example :) Good luck with your challenges next year!DoingDeweyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09902496432225294188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-32754811520932320762014-12-17T23:16:00.363+11:002014-12-17T23:16:00.363+11:00I'm back after a year of staying away from rea...I'm back after a year of staying away from reading challenges (and reading as well - though not intentionally). I've also signed up for O's and Adam's challenges and three more that caught my fancy because they appeal to my reading sense and style. :D <br /><br />I also have A Bronte's Tenant of Wildfell Hall down for Reading England.

I will not be doing the TBR pile challenge again. I did it for the first time this year and learned that I don't do well reading off a pre-chosen list, it felt like homework and I kept avoiding it. I look forward to hearing about all the great books you have planned for next year.
